I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Gutsy Soulful Blues-Rocker Dana Fuchs Heads Home For US Tour Dates

Gutsy Soulful Blues-Rocker Dana Fuchs Heads Home

From Europe to Conquer The U.S.!

Dana answers her Fans’ Pleas!

“To look at, Fuchs is willowy flower-fairy with a head of Titian
curls…Her voice, though is juke-joint dirty and illicit, evoking Joplin,
Jagger, and a fag butt bobbing in a glass of bourbon.”

- Classic Rock UK

Atlanta, GA –
Ruf Records recording artist Dana Fuchs has become a powerhouse vocal
sensation in Europe with her Robert Plant meets Janis Joplin vocals,
along with a Mick Jagger stage-like swagger, her songs and lyrics come
straight from the depths of her tortured yet joyous soul to her
audiences. Fuchs is now set to conquer the U.S, as she continues her
World Tour in support of her latest release Songs From The Road with a string of key US dates in 2015.

You
have to see Dana live to believe it and she has just delivered her
fierce live show to her fans’ living rooms with her new live CD/DVD
combo, captured at Highline Ballroom in New York City on March 14th 2014 in front of a sold-out, hometown crowd. The reviews have been stellar.

“It’s
the voice that grabs you first. That big, whiskey-flavored tonsil
showdown that can kick your butt one minute and soothe your ills the
next. Once she has caught your attention, Dana Fuchs will proceed to
give you a piece of her heart with her arsenal of songs that were built
from feelings, experiences, some good times, some bad times and a lot of
soul searching in a world that can be loving and cruel. Fuchs
definitely knows her way around a totem pole of emotions.” - Glide Magazine

Songs From The Roadis jam-packed
with material spanning the years since Dana left her home in Florida at
age 19 to pursue her music career full time and pay her dues in NYC.
Dana took NYC’s gritty blues scene by storm garnering attention that led
to her first big break under the bright lights of Broadway playing
Janis Joplin in the critically acclaimed Love, Janis. Her
role got the attention of world-renowned film and stage director Julie
Taymor, who cast Dana to star as Sadie (a part written specifically for
Dana by the director) in the 2007 Academy Award nominated Sony Pictures
Beatles musical, Across The Universe.

In
2009, Dana Fuchs cemented herself as a world-class singer &
songwriter with the release of her second critically acclaimed studio
album Love To Begon Ruf Records described by Relix Magazine as a “must buy.”Proving she had staying power, her third studio album Bliss Avenue
(Ruf Records 2011) was hailed by critics with Classic Rock Magazine UK
describing her “ash tray battle cry” as getting its “best canvas to
date.”

Dana’s
life story is not one for the faint of heart. Arriving in NYC alone and
broke, clawing her way out of poverty, addiction, the seedy life of
strip joints and enduring the tragic suicide of her sister, gave Dana
the will to purge her soul through music and invite her audiences to
share and bare their souls with her. Dana says, “Each show is about my
connection to the audience. They are half of the show and a huge part of
the whole experience. We all share the same desire for joy and we have
lived our own pain. My goal at every show is to make sure we connect
and celebrate life in all its beautiful, painful glory.”

Now Dana takes Songs From The Roadon
tour in the U.S.A. where audiences will get a supercharged two hour
show as Fuchs exhibits “blisteringly raw vocals” and “gut-wrenching
honesty” to forge a true “emotional connection” with them according to
Blues & Soul Magazine UK.

Dana
is booked by Intrepid Artists out of Charlotte, NC and her radio is
handled by Mike DeUrso with Ruf Records at the following email: tunefulguy@hotmail.com
